It is not easy to be the fourth master's wife

Chapter 49

Pearl stood inside the second gate, followed by two little girls, one held an umbrella for her and the other stood on tiptoe to look into the distance. After waiting for a cup of tea, a little eunuch came to run errands. Pearl asked He: "Has Mammy come in?"

"Back to my sister, I saw Mammy coming in, so I ran over to tell you, I'm afraid I'm coming here now." The little eunuch grinned, and handed the bundle brought by Madam Wusu to the person standing behind Pearl. Little girl, Pearl fumbled in her sleeve and gave him ten big coins: "Please go and have a look, and bring over the other things first."

"What did my sister say?" The little eunuch thought lightly with the hand holding the money, his eyes narrowed and he smiled: "It's about a few steps away." As he said that, he turned his head and ran back and forth.

Gradually someone approached on the small road, Pearl fixed her eyes and smiled at the person who was walking by. Just as she was about to step out the door to meet her, she saw Mother Wusu still following her young son, so she quickly retreated behind the door to hide her face. past.The man looked at the figures of the girls' houses in the door from a distance, quickly stopped and turned his back, and handed the small bundle in his hand to Madam Wusu.

"Emiang, you should always speak out."

Aunt Wusu was about 40 years old. When she pursed her lips, there were two deep wrinkles on her face, and her hair was combed meticulously. She smiled and patted her son's hand gently: "Got it, master!" For those who have been given grace, allow me to go back every ten days, and you will pick me up at the second gate when the time comes."

Hearing her son's promise, she went inside again. Pearl greeted her and took the bundle in her hand, and instead of handing it over to the little girl, she took it by herself, calling her: "The good mother is finally here, I and The agate eyes are looking forward to piercing." Saying this, he couldn't hide the joy on his face: "Madam, have you heard about it?" Before the old mammy could figure it out, he poured beans out of the bamboo tube to make the Nanyuan suffer. He said it all.

"Really!" The original three-pointed joy on Wusu's face suddenly became very happy: "Master, did you really say that you moved the two little elder brothers over to us to be raised by Fujin?"

"No, this time the master is lecturing them." When she met the threshold Pearl in front of her, she gave her a hand, took the opportunity to lean into her ear, and whispered: "As soon as the mother comes back, we can be regarded as the backbone, where is the master?" It's just waiting for Mammy to close the door."

"But you can't use it!" Mother Wusu scratched her eyes with pearls, then reached out and tapped her nose: "Why didn't you help the master."

Pearl shrinks her neck and sticks out her tongue: "We have to wait for Mammy to come, we don't dare to relax all the time." Along the way, she told Madam Wusu the current situation in the backyard in detail: "Now it's time to arrive in Bixi. It will be much better after the nanny leaves, and the master's body will be recuperated, and Manao and I pray to Buddha every day, hoping that the master will conceive another little elder brother."

"Really!" Seeing Pearl's face beaming with joy, Wusu's mother laughed when she said that she had recuperated and squeezed her hand: "I asked for it sooner or later, but this time it's better." gone."

In the main courtyard, Manao was watching the little girl pack up her things, some of them murmured that entering the palace was not so strict, and she was immediately brought out by Manao, who first asked to kneel aside and change the monthly money for two months. The board is no longer called a collar, and now the south courtyard is short of manpower, and they will be asked to go back to the south courtyard after kneeling.

With the first two examples, things went much smoother in the future. Everyone hung their heads and dared not speak. The backyard has really changed. Originally, there were two suns competing for glory, but the positive one was worse than the vice one. It's darker, and it shines brightly all of a sudden, the servants dare not go against Zhou Ting's intentions, there is that clever person who has already started to please some people in the main courtyard, and just wants to jump out of the south courtyard and change to a master.

Madam Wusu straightened her back, swept her eyes when she walked over, and pointed out two of them casually, and Manao quickly picked them out and sent them to the group of people who were sent back to the south courtyard.

"That eye is dishonest, master can't keep such a person by his side, this one is a bit frivolous." While walking, he pointed to Pearl: "You and Manao are young after all, you can't keep people like this, especially the ones at the back. " Mother Wusu was still flipping through the old imperial calendar. She had served Nala for so long, so she knew exactly what kind of women Yinzhen liked. When picking a girl, I always pick the other side.It's one thing for Zhou Ting to praise her, but it's another thing for a girl to be picked up by Yinzhen.

Pearl has already seen some of it these days, and she intends to help Yinzhen say a few words, revealing that Zhou Ting is now favoring her, and feels that it is better for Madam Wusu to see it herself, so she just nodded and said : "It's the nanny's old way, we can't think of it anymore."

Entering the main courtyard while talking, Zhou Ting was sitting in the main room talking to Da Gege. Aunt Wusu would kneel down to pay her respects as soon as she entered. Pointing at Da Gege: "This is Da Gege, who used to be common to mothers, but now lives in my yard."

Big Gege lowered his head when he heard the words, and stood up. Sister Wusu waved her hands again and again: "Gege, sit down quickly, how can you ask Gege to stand up for the slaves." Even though he said this, he nodded secretly in his heart, thinking that Gege still made sense If you don't grow up, you can save a lot of trouble by raising it with Zhou Ting.

"Biyu, take this to Da Gege for some snacks." Zhou Ting pointed to the sweet white porcelain dish. Just now Da Gege praised the beautiful peach pattern. Today she deliberately pulled Da Gege to talk, Yinzhen After leaving a message, she will tell Da Gege that it's not she who doesn't let her see her mother, but her Ama who stops her.The words are already very ugly, "there is no need to ask the master to serve the slaves."

The more Yinzhen's attitude was like this, the more Zhou Ting felt that Li Shi had really done something. She didn't investigate at first, but now she looked for all the suspicious places. It took only a few days, and she really asked her to investigate. There are several places where hands and feet have been moved.

Da Gege bent his knees, bowed his head and took half a step back before turning around and going out.To Sister Wusu, Zhou Ting was not an outsider at all. She took her hand and sat talking for a long time, and then talked about Da Gege: "This Gege usually looks well-behaved, but now I look at it again and find out that he is the master." luck."

Zhou Ting smiled: "It's a good education." I won't talk about it here, Zhou Ting is worried about another matter. She sent the little girl away, leaving Pearl to sit outside for her. Picking up the needle and thread, she dragged Madam Wusu inside.

Aunt Wusu still wanted to sit on the couch, but Zhou Ting pulled her onto the kang, she felt something was wrong with her body, Zhou Ting rubbed her waist with her hands behind her back and didn't take it seriously.She has been tossing and turning the words in her stomach for several days, and now she finally found someone who can say it: "I dare not say these things to the pearls and agates, they are young and inexperienced, I think this in my heart The head can only tell Mammy..."

Gritting his teeth, he revealed all the mistakes and omissions found in the past few days: "It was when I was not healthy in the first half of the year that I killed several servants in the kitchen. When I think about it now, shivers run down my spine."

If Zhou Ting can tell anyone what is in her heart, it must be Mother Wusu. Nala is the mother of Mother Wusu, so she is half a mother. Half-Life, this is a natural ally, and I couldn't be more loyal to her.Secondly, the less people know about some things, the better. Of course, you have to choose someone who has been with her for many years and has been dedicated to her.

At first, she wanted to keep this matter to herself, as long as she only knew about it, but then she thought, even if she was filming a TV series, she had to find another safe person to know the truth.If Mrs. Li really has such great energy and can kill his son-in-law, then it's no wonder Mrs. Nala died of illness. After thinking about it for a long time, she decided to tell Aunt Wusu.

Aunt Wusu almost fell on her back when she heard it: "Master, do you have evidence?" Zhou Ting shook her head. It has been almost a year, and all evidence has been wiped out. All she can know is the personnel changes in the kitchen at that time. Been several times.

When she said this, Madam Wusu recalled it carefully, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt suspicious of Mrs. Li. Normally, Honghui had always been healthy, so she stood up right away, "You black-hearted and rotten bastard, The raised hands were trembling: "No wonder she ran so diligently during the few days when the accident happened, and she stayed honest for so long afterward, no wonder." It turned out that she didn't think about it, but now that she has this clue, she can even think about it. I think so.

He grabbed Zhou Ting's hand: "Did the master tell the master about this?"

Zhou Ting bit her lip and shook her head: "I'm afraid, Lord knows a little bit, otherwise how could he suddenly turn cold on Mrs. Li? Last time, everyone in the room heard it in front of me, but she didn't have any face. Didn't leave it to her either."

"This is because I don't want to make trouble anymore." Aunt Wusu's tears rolled down, she hugged Zhou Ting, and cried into a ball: "Our poor big brother..." She hadn't opened her voice yet, Zhou Ting covered her mouth.

"Nurse, now is not the time to cry." Zhou Ting took a deep breath, and said again the words she used to coax Concubine De: "I was thinking that the Lord must have failed to catch the evidence, but I already had a clue in my heart. I have to give Honghui a younger brother, so at least I won’t let him stop this bowl of rice. As for Mrs. Li, we have a long future, so we can’t be in a hurry.” After talking about it, Zhou Ting got goosebumps, except for her. There had to be someone who knew the truth and could keep eyes on the backyard when she was negligent.

"I can save it." Sister Wusu was silent, and tears kept rolling down: "Poor thing..." Zhou Ting took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears, and Sister Wusu patted her on the back to comfort her: " I have to hurry up and get pregnant with one, and then I will have another child of my own." She really is willing to shorten her life.

Before the words finished, Zhou Ting smelled a sweet smell, and felt sick from her stomach. She covered her mouth with a handkerchief and retched two pieces. Aunt Wusu was stunned and then called Pearl to come in: " Hurry up, ask the imperial doctor to go."

In Yinzhen's study, a set of tea sets with black ground and white plum blossoms fell, and he trembled with anger. He could naturally find out what Zhou Ting could find out.There were few people in the kitchen without a sound, and someone was added. Why didn't Mrs. Li change the other person, but changed the kitchen, even the small kitchen in the main courtyard was replaced by her!It is clear that there is a ghost in my heart!

For a moment, he felt chills in his heart. Even if something like that happened to Hongshi, he still showed dignity to Mrs. Li, and didn't let her step down from the concubine position, and didn't hurt her clansmen, but it turned out that she had He stabbed him hard in the back.

Yinzhen's chest heaved and heaved, wishing he could vent his anger, take away her father and brother's official position, and give her a sudden death!Yinzhen looked at the four urgent words on the gold sprinkled paper, "Don't be anxious and bear with patience". It turned out that he couldn't even protect his son-in-law in his last life, and there was still a period of time in his heart that he complained that his wife didn't take good care of his son, so he kept rubbing his fingers Yu pulled his finger and carefully traced the animal face pattern on it, and it took him a long time to let out this breath.

This matter is endless, but he can't be in a hurry at this moment.Yinzhen knew that today was the day when Nanny Wusu came back, and the "big brother" that he didn't shout out was also passed on. He beat the table with the hand holding the pen holder, and owed her the boss. I want to replenish her, but the debt cannot be recovered at this time. The elder brother is about to curse the princes. He has to arrange this matter carefully and see if he can get some benefits. The most important thing is to mention the county king and get the inlaid white flag as soon as possible.

After finally suppressing the anger in his chest, Su Peisheng came in beamingly from outside, and he gave a big gift as soon as he entered the door: "My master is overjoyed!"

Yinzhen frowned: "What's wrong?"

"Fu Jin was just diagnosed to be two months pregnant."

At this moment, no matter how much anger there was, it was thrown out of Jiuxiaoyun. Yinzhen stood up from the desk, threw the pen and was about to rush out, and Su Peisheng behind him was holding the big hair with one foot deep and one shallow foot The clothes chased after him: "My lord, at least wear some clothes."
